King

Chapter 288 Route

Not only were the three "bad brothers" despised, but the Principality of Alton was also sent over to take on the task of escorting grain and grass together.

There is no way, the reinforcements sent by other forces are all elites, and the troops sent by these few forces are the worst.

War is not simply about the more people, the better. It is better to fight the enemy with your pig teammates than to do it alone.

Hudson was not surprised at all by the reaction of his allies.

Everyone is full of confidence and ready to make a fortune, as if the orcs can be wiped out with a snap of their fingers.

For the sake of one's own fame and fortune, the hard work of transporting grain and grass would naturally be left to others.

Without any surprise, Hudson was appointed commander-in-chief of coalition logistics. There was no dispute this time. The military command can be independent, but logistics must be unified.

This is a matter of principle. If we don’t appoint a responsible person, who will we ask for supplies later?

"This is the map of the Orc Empire we drew on the wall. It is not comprehensive, but it is the limit of our understanding of the Orc Empire.

We can't control how the army sets out to fight, but the grain and grass transportation route must be planned.

Now, please invite Duke Kavadia, who is familiar with the Orc Empire, to introduce us to the specific situation of the Orc Empire. "

At the internal meeting of the Coalition Logistics Department, Hudson said with a half-smile.

It's funny to think about it. In the absence of unified command of the coalition forces, the Logistics Department, which does not seem to have much power, has actually become the only legal authority.

Is there really no way for the Logistics Department to intervene in the frontline battle?

Hudson did not believe that the coalition forces dared to fight all the way regardless of logistics. At most, it's two to three hundred miles away. If it's further away, it won't be possible to take care of both.

If the enemy sends troops to cut off the food route, the troops on the front line will go hungry. No commander would dare to take such a risk.

Once the grain and grass transportation route was determined, the army's offensive direction was essentially determined.

“Everyone knows that the Orc Empire has many races and is jointly ruled by five royal families. In fact, their situation is much more complicated than this.

From a topographic point of view, the Orc Empire can be roughly divided into five parts.

They are: the Orc Steppe in the south, the Ural Mountains in the center, the Nikola Plateau in the north, the Salar Hills in the west, and the eastern coast are mostly undeveloped swamps and saline-alkali lands.

The complex terrain provides the best protection for the Orc Empire. In all the wars launched by the alliance against the orcs, the final battlefields always stayed on the orc prairie.

The end point of most times is where we are now. It’s not that our ancestors didn’t think about going deeper. The main problem is logistics.

The biggest reason why we are able to continue fighting this time is that Beitlun Port was opened up, and in addition to land transportation, a maritime transportation channel was added.

For this artificial port, the kingdom spent ten years cleaning up thousands of rocks and artificially opening a sea channel.

In order to deceive the orcs and save this hard-won port. Even when the war was at its most intense, we did not use it until the major counterattack began! "

Having said this, Kavadia couldn't help but smile proudly. During this war, it was he who was personally responsible for guarding Betland Port.

He also made great efforts in the previous port development process. The greater the role played by Bertrand, the more proof of his merit.

It was precisely with these solid achievements that he established his position in the kingdom, and his prestige surpassed the other four Northland Dukes.

"What do you mean, Your Excellency the Duke, to find a way to seize the orcs' Fengyue Port and use the sea channel to transport food and grass?"

Marshal Borg asked tentatively.

He had no choice but to personally lead the team to participate in this war. The Warhammer Kingdom, which was severely weakened, was in a mess after the war.

King Joseph II's prestige plummeted and he was unable to continue to maintain the balance of the kingdom. After the nobles of the western faction gained the upper hand, they urgently needed to establish their prestige within the kingdom.

For a kingdom that was paralyzed by the orcs, nothing could boost the morale of the people more than beating the orcs.

In addition, internationally, they also need to brush up their presence to prove that they have also made contributions in this war against the invasion of the orcs.

Marshal Borg, who was getting stronger and stronger, was invited out of the mountain. All parties reluctantly gathered an army of 30,000 troops and appeared on the battlefield.

"good!"

Duke Kavadia replied with a smile.

This was discussed in advance. Before the army set off, the trio had discussed in advance the route for sending troops and the transportation route for logistics supplies.

According to the original plan, part of the kingdom's army and its allies would share the task of transporting food, and another part of the kingdom's army would participate in the liquidation of the orcs.

Unexpectedly, the plan did not change quickly. In order to undermine the prestige of the Alpha Kingdom, the Holy See proposed at the alliance meeting that all the kingdom's troops be incorporated into the logistics force, and it was recognized by various countries.

This kind of arrangement, if you encounter a arrogant master, will cause thunder on the spot. Unfortunately, he met Hudson, who had been severely beaten by society, and he just followed the trend and took on the task.

No matter what the insult is, the most important thing for the current Alpha Kingdom is to preserve its strength.

It’s great to be responsible for escorting grain and grass!

When other troops are in danger, it is unknown whether the allies will rescue them, but when the food transport team is in danger, no one dares to watch.

There have been many people in history who betrayed their teammates; those who dare to betray their own food transport team are only traitors.

At most, there are some people in the coalition doing some small business with the orcs secretly. To say that they would betray the human race for the orc empire, there is no big force that is so stupid.

"Our northern continent has always lacked good ports, especially the east coast area, which is full of rocks, and the problem gets worse as we go north.

Fengyue Port was opened to navigation three years ago. It is said that the Behemoth family spent a lot of money to open it up. Could it be also the work of your country? "

Marshal Borg asked in surprise.

Don't blame him for thinking so, it was such a coincidence. It makes sense for the Alpha Kingdom to forcefully open a port in the northern Xinjiang region.

Without the influence of external forces, he has always been a landlubber Behemoth. When he is full, he is ready to run to open a port?

Facts have proved that the development of Fengyue Port still failed. The port did appear, but trade still failed to prosper as expected.

On the one hand, the Orc Empire lacks knowledge in navigation, and its shipbuilding level is only slightly better than that of canoes. Building a boat of more than ten tons is the limit of their technology.

On the other hand, the poor business environment of the Orc Empire has persuaded countless businessmen to retreat based on their strength.

Unless they are masters with powerful eyes and hands, ordinary maritime merchants simply do not dare to do business in the Orc Empire, so Fengyue Port has been in a state of depression since its opening.

"Marshal, this is just a coincidence. The opening of Fengyue Port was completely based on the whims of old Emperor Behemoth in an attempt to seize wealth from the sea.

Looking at the current situation of Fengyue Port, we can see that the orcs obviously lack knowledge in the field of port construction. Otherwise, as the largest external port of an empire, it would be impossible for it to fail to prosper! "

Hudson flatly denied it.

It doesn't matter if you open a port on your own territory. No matter what the Alpha Kingdom does, no one will say anything.

But helping the Orc Empire to open a port is something that must not be involved. Even deep down, Hudson believed that this was a good thing done by his king.

Perhaps realizing that he had made a mistake, Marshal Borg smiled apologetically. This kind of thing can be done secretly. It must be publicly acknowledged, at least after the Orc Empire is destroyed, and then it can be used as a publicity for merit.

It's not a question of whether to attract hatred or not, but politics has always been full of two sides, and everyone only focuses on the final result.

Destroying the Orc Empire was an achievement. If they failed to destroy the Orc Empire and instead allowed them to manage Fengyue Port and add a financial and tax important place, it would be a political accident.

In the Orc Empire and the human coalition, as soon as they stepped out of the pass, the news reached the five royal families. The five emperors were so frightened that they gathered together as quickly as possible to discuss countermeasures.

coming!

The darkest hour of the Orc Empire is coming!

Facing the bloody revenge of the mainland overlord, no Beast King dared to take it lightly.

"The relocation work did not go very smoothly. Many mountain forest tribes were unwilling to move to the grasslands to settle down. It is possible that the news was leaked in advance.

There are too many orcs who know that the southern invasion failed. Even if we want to kill them, we can't do it.

The human coalition forces are coming fiercely, and currently there are not enough tribes responsible for blocking the swords. We must move more orcs over, slow down their attack as much as possible, and prepare for the tribe's evacuation! "

Silver Moon Wolf Emperor said worriedly.

The richest thing in the Orc Empire is the vast plains of the Orcs, which are rich in water, grass, and products, and are very suitable for the development of animal husbandry and agricultural production.

In comparison, the land in other areas is much poorer. Needless to say, the mountains in the central region rely entirely on hunting and picking wild fruits for a living, which can only support a small number of small and medium-sized tribes.

The plateau in the north is covered with loess. It is dry and rainless all year round, and it is extremely cold in winter. Only some cold-resistant races can survive for a long time.

The hilly land in the west is barren and limited by the productivity of the Orc Empire. The current level of development and utilization is very low.

The eastern coast is covered with swamps and salt-alkali land. With the productivity of the Orc Empire, it is natural that it has not been developed.

Against this background, the large tribes of the Orc Empire basically gathered on the southern prairie.

Agricultural production has also developed in areas along rivers and rivers. Although the output cannot be compared with that of the human race, it has also entered the era of agricultural civilization.

It is through these crops that the Orc Empire is able to feed its large population. If we abandon the rich prairie and move to other areas with poor land, everyone's good days will be over.

In order to make living space for themselves and to stop the offensive pace of the human army, the five royal families embarked on a great racial migration.
